Description

Station House is a railway station and station-master's house, now used as a house, built in 1849 for the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway. It features a later extension and platform canopy. The building has a yellow brick front, red brick sides and rear, with ashlar dressings, and a slate roof. It is T-shaped in plan.

The platform front is comprised of one and two storeys with six bays. The central section is two-storey and two-bay, featuring a projecting bay that contains the ticket office. To the left is a single-storey wing with a porter's lodge, and to the right is a three-bay single-storey waiting room. There is a single-storey extension set back to the left. The building has quoins, and the entrance at the angle of the ticket office has a pair of plain doors and a radial fanlight beneath a round-headed brick arch. The entrances to the wings have part-glazed doors and fanlights in round-headed rusticated surrounds, with a radial fanlight for the porter's lodge and a plain fanlight for the waiting room.

The front of the ticket office features a Venetian window with ashlar mullions and a moulded arch. There is a round-headed sash window to the left in a rusticated surround with a cill on brackets, and two similar windows on the first floor. All windows are sashes with glazing bars, although those in the waiting room are damaged and incomplete. The building has a plain ashlar eaves cornice, which is interrupted by the canopy and returned across the gable ends of the wings. There is a decorative bargeboard on the projecting central section, and axial and end stacks with ashlar cornices. A round-headed sash window is located on the right return in a rusticated surround. At the rear, facing Station Yard, there is a rendered projecting central section with a round-headed entrance that has a part-glazed door, radial fanlight, and sidelights in an ashlar surround. The windows at the rear are similar to those at the front, with sashes in the waiting room and 20th-century casements elsewhere. The waiting room was disused at the time of the re-survey.
